@xlemus: "Barça should have a meeting with Pedri to discuss his future. If the club and the player don't find a solution to his constant muscular injuries, his future at the club should be compromised. In fact, it has been a while since he played at his best level."

I agree with this 100%. Pedri has missed 75 games for Barca in just under 4 yrs. This is no longer funny. If he can't stay fit, what's the use of his talent?

He's not being paid huge wages to ne shedding crocodile tears on the bench after yet another injury.

He's paid to help the club achieve there aim in a critical part of the season.

oliverano:
FCB, no matter what you do, do not appoint Dezerbo, I can already see same issues we're facing now with him.

Also, let Felix find his level, Lewy from next season shouldn't be starter, get a physical trainer for sister Pedri....but damm, Araujo my goodness. That guy is so unreal in terms of pure defensive actions.

The way I dey fear for yamal ehn despite the fact he's our best winger at age 16, Flick might not be a tactical guru but we need that experience and physicality, dembele that left us when was the last time you've heard of his injury

It is past 3 yrs now. We can't keep giving same excuses. What is he doing to stay fit?

When you put too much stress on a still developing body we shouldn't be surprised if it start breaking down in the future, Look at fati, see what happened to gavi, see how we're praying for yamal despite the fact we enjoy his talent, now we've started with cubarsi, Tbh I don't know what would happen as regards Pedri in the future but the club should think thoroughly about this one cause they also have a big hand in it

I dey tell you. Let's see how it goes!

Another missed opportunity to climb second position and close the gap of Madrid to 5 points. Sad 😢😢😢

Dembele is no more getting injured since he left Barca

Is it not obvious where the problem is coming from ?

You speak as though we're the only club with young players. Do you know that Jude Bellingham is still only 20 years and he was the mainstay in Borussia Dortmund and now in Real Madrid? He looks as fit as anyone can be. Occasional 2wks or so out is normal.

In my opinion, our players are not doing enough to be injury free. The club does not encourage them enough to stay healthy. They probably rely exclusively on the club's medical team. They should be doing more for themselves to stay fit.

Very obvious. Also our players don't take care of themselves enough. I'm sure most of them do not have personal physical training teams.

It’s high time they stop blaming pedri injuries to how he was used by koeman and Spain 2020/2021

It’s 3 fucking years for God sake ,blame the medical team at least

Nobody can be more fragile like dembele ,now man is now fit like Ronaldo Messi and griezman ,doesn’t get injured since he left Barca

The message is clear

This is why I want Hansi Flick. He can improve there physicality a lot. Xavi's medical team is inept. They ruined our season with their inability to keep key players fit at key moments

Jude has not played the amount of games Pedri played in 2021 in his professional career, jumping from laliga, ucl r16, Copa del Rey final to the euros and later Olympics, also both are different physically as Jude is also a workhorse box to box midfielder compared to Pedri with his leaner frame, Barça and Spain destroyed him, Reason why we have to be extra careful with yamal and Cubarsi despite their talents too

Even if we won do you really believe we'll win laliga over vardrid bro with their squad, form and "assistance" when things get tough, Our season most likely ended in January, All these talks about our injuries but bilbao had 7 bench warmers in their lineup yesterday but we still played like shit, Just pass, recycle the ball, hoof ball and pray for something to come out of it

Yes I am worried for Yamal and Curbarsi.

The club has proven they cannot take care of the youngsters. Due to lack of funds, they cannot sign good players but now we rely and ultimately overuse youngsters, leading to recurring injuries.

Ansu Fati still breaks my heart but the club have shown we haven't learned from that experience.

It's just a pity.

If you are talking about overusing youngsters please don’t add ansu fati to it abeg and it’s time we stop this excuse

Fati was never overused ,he even played his best minutes of football under xavi and mostly not as a starter ,fati was unfortunate with injuries and not a case of overused ,go and check his minutes before that injury and you will see

You can only make a case of pedri ,but that’s 3 years back abeg ,person go get injury we go Dey blame am because dem overplay am 3 years ago .

Maybe when pedri clocks 30 and still at this club and he gets injured ,we will go to 12 back and blame koeman Enrique for overusing him

We have had 22 injuries this season ,it’s time we hold the medical team responsible and stop all this blaming of overusing of youngsters ,FDJ don get him second injury ,raphinha have had 2 injuries but yeah they aren’t youngsters so nobody to be blamed for their own ,even ter Stegen was out injured for some time

Or was balde overused before his injury ?

Just wait till 33 year old gundogan breaks down then you will understand.

Man is blunt and he ain’t lying

Player go get injury fans go Dey go back to last 3 seasons when Spain and Barca overuse am

It’s the club cannot take care of youngsters but when people like FDJ raphina get injury na normal thing but once it’s the kids it’s because they where overused

Hold the medical staffs responsible abeg ,we have had 22 injuries this season baba and FDJ top that list after pedri

One of pedri issue is Barca rushing him back because of how good he is ,that dude should sit out for the rest of the season abeg ,he should come back next season when he will be stronger ,I hope he doesn’t go to the euros also

So Pedri has become Barca's new Dembele.
It's surprising why players like Roberto don't get injured often.

And dembele has played 30 games so far this season for psg ,only 2 behind mbappe

Barca fans should Check FDJ and raphinha current injury records then they will hold the medical team responsible and stop blaming koeman and Enrique for overusing him 3 years ago as a teenager

Most injured this season in that order...

1. Dejong,

2. Pedri and

3. Araujo.

Notable mentions Dr. Inigo Martinez and Medical trainee, Master Alonso!

It was always bound to happen with our financial situation and Enrique's Barça connection, I remember vividly when Barça tried to stop Pedri from going to the Olympics after the euros due to this fatigue fear but somehow along the way a compromise was reached for him to play, yes it helped him win the golden boy award but along the way we are now the ones suffering it in the long run
That's why this summer we have to take the pain staking decision to sell as much players as possible so we can go into the market and be more competitive in the present, all these youngsters we have will peak bit that's in the near future, I'm sure most of us were in awe of how arsenal are decimating opponents but it was a gradual step with buying players to build their team and focusing on their brightest academy talents like Saka, even with the bottling and bad results in arteta's first season they still kept on building the team to one that free scores without a lethal striker, so we just have to figure out what we'll do, Do we continue to suffer for the next few years while gradually building with lamasia and other youth talents from other clubs or do we sell or find another way to generate massive funds, beat tebas's FFP traps and buy established players to improve the team, whichever one they want to do a decision has to be made fast this summer before we gradually kill our future in the present

Baba which time FDJ and Raphinha don get the kind injuries wey Pedri get? Person wey fit play three weeks max next thing we go hear na relapse, Even gavi wey strong like agbero na this same overusing issue cause am to get that ACL cause most of us were advocating for his rest immediately Spain qualified, everybody body dey different, Genes, Racial background, amount of games on the body matters a lot and Barça y Spain can't deny we made a mess of the situation, Medical team wey we dey even lash at no fit perform magic on an injury prone player abi make them give the players steriod to perform? Make nothing just do yamal and Cubarsi na my own be that

Tbh I don't know what's gonna happen with Pedri except wishing he comes back to full fitness to continue giving us joy but if there's any way we can lay our hands on Wirtz in future that might be a real game changer, Blud doesn't even look like he had an ACL injury at all, hopefully the FFP issues will leave so we can see if we have a chance

Since dembele left Barcelona to psg, i don't think he has ever been injured again but here we are in Barcelona, almost all the squad have had one injury or so.
Whats really going on with our medical team?

Right now we are going through some financial challenges and we need money to compete at the highest level.
Since mbappe is most likely going to end up in Madrid, more pressure is now on Barcelona so we need to make a move that will hit back at them financially and in terms of the media clout.
The best way to rise up again is to sell as many players available including LEWANDOWSKI, Ralhinha, etc and sign halland.
Signing haaland will likely make more money for Barcelona than what mpabbe will make for Madrid.
In fact it will triple than what mpabbe will make for Madrid and then next two seasons with so much money and with camp nou ready, we can now fully compete in the market and signing Messi again for just one season so we can give him a proper fairwell will break bank for Barcelona.

All that i have said can be possible if laporta make the right phone call and i know Guadiola can help make it possible.

Will haaland leave Manchester city to Barcelona? 100% yes.
Due to the balloon d'or factor and that thrill to compete with mbappe.

Truth be told, we don't even need to buy much next season, just a good coach and halland is okay.
Defense is solid, midfield is solid, all we need are goal scoring machines.

FDJ and raph don get 2 injuries this season and pedri don get 3 ,all of them where almost out for the same time

Do you need prove egbon ?

Pedri have played 22 games this season while FDJ have played 24 and raph also 24 ,but only one here is being blamed for being overused by koeman and Enrique 3 years ago ,only one is injury prone also

Gavi get acl we blame overusing ,Florian writz get acl nobody blame overusing because it’s not Barca

Meanwhile dembele is now the fittest player alive after leaving Barca ,man Dey follow mbappe drag about same minutes for psg

We have had 22 different injuries this season alone. That is unprecedented. Our medical team needs to be overhauled.
